Today, NVIDIA has outed the Quadro/Tesla/GRID Graphics driver version 320.00 that is compatible with both 32- and 64-bit version of Microsoft’s Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8 operating systems.

The newly released package is WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Lab) certified, and it increases workstation compatibility and overall performance over previous driver versions.

In addition, the 320.00 WHQL version resolves the inconsistent performance issue for the Quadro 4000 graphics card on a multi-GPU system, which was spotted while performing FBO upload and PBO readback.

Moreover, Quadro’s 6000 card doesn’t return 2 values for glGetIntegerv(GL_POLYGON_MODE) option, and the OpenGL function TextureGrad() can be used with sampler2DArrayShadow without the driver to crash.

Furthermore, in the 320.00 WHQL package you will also find drivers like the 9.18.13.2000 Graphics, the 1.3.24.2 HD Audio, the 6.14.13.2000 Stereoscopic 3D USB controller, and the 2.12 NVWMI (WMI-based interface for configuring enterprise systems).

Before you install the driver, NVIDIA recommends that you remove the nTune (if previously installed) and that you make sure the SLI Mosaic mode is disabled.

That being said, follow the link below, and from the list, choose the one that best describes your bit version and operating system.
